Rev. =. S. Rives was called /,
Moore county last week to attend tn,
funeral of his oldest sister. HeI
husband died just four months ago
and she leaves FIVE small children.
It is regretted that the closing ex.
crcises Of so many Of our leading
schools near by, come off the same da,
this year. Il is hoped that the an,
thoritics will arrange so as to have
them close at different times, SO per.
sons may visit more than one. Bid.
die, Livingston, and the Normal al
Fayetteville, close on the LIST day Of
June this year.
Complaint against our postoffice is
heard on every side. Persons 90 to
the Office every day and then get let
tiers that have lain there for one, two
and three months. Numbers of letters
mailed here are never heard of again.
Something is wrong.
Where are the prohibitionists of a
year ago who swore they would no
longer support the Democrats Where
are the liberals who loved the Negro
so we'll last summer? Where are the
Republicans who held and sought of
fee few years back ? Where where !
where! Perhaps the Knights of Labor
are not all gone. Prohibitionists are
evidently losing strength among the
colored people. Independents, liber-
ais, etc., are dead.
The marriage of Miss Mary Bonner
to Mr.. G. R. Moore was very largely
attended. The groomsmen and brides
maids were Miss Laura Lomax, Mr..
Richard North; Miss Isadore Lomax
Mr.. Ernest Moore; Miss Lydia Rob-
inson, Mr.. Monroe Coley; Johnsie
Hall and Dora Hagler flower girls. The
bride was dressed in white albatras,
court train, trimmed with pasmentra
and white satin front; orange blossom
wreath and white blonde veil Thp
maids wore sky-blue. Supper wa-
'erved by the groom at his resi-
ience. The presents were many and
valuable.

Rev. R. Smith spent several day.
in the city this week and preached al
the NJ. Z. church on Thursday night.
The press and the many friends Of
Mr.. j. W. Cromwell, editor of the
Washington .idrocote sympathize with
him in the loss of his wife.
We are informed that the school
property at Asheville under the con-
troll of Mr.. Suggs has been turned over
to the NJ. 4. church. The property
consists of about two acres of ground
and two new six room cottages and
outbuildings. 1t has heretofore been
taken for Zion school.

Turn the RascaIs Ont.

Colored men are being turned out
the Departments at Washington at a
lively rate. That is right Every
Republican ought to be turned out and
the Democrats given fair chance to
run the government themselves. They
don't know neither do we know what
they can do while there are so many
Republicans still in. We have no OBJ
lection to appointing colored Demo-
Gratis, but turn the rascals out and fill
their places with administration men.
We intend to begin ON the 9th of
March 1889, when Mr.. Sherman or
some other good Republican is inaug-
urated, and turn out Democrats at the
rate of 1865 per day, and quarter wash
ed Republicans who have not the man
hood to resign and hold over under
Cleveland, will share the fate of the
enemy. ITO the victors belong the
spoils." We all believe in this and
why not practice it.

There are only three colored prin-
tsrs now left in the Government print

Hon. Fred Douglass is now in Italy

He knows how to live.
We are glad to announce that Miss
Annie Walker of Chester is again well
and teaching in the public school of
Chester.
Mrs. Annie johnson is now in Biz
mingham, Ala, with her husband and

will remain there some time.
Lawyer j. S. Leary, speaks of
coming to this city to practice. Such
intellectual and cultured men as he
will benefit our city.
Mrs. P. A. McCorkle, left the city
last Thursday morning to join her
husband in Winston.

The Time has Come.

We have for some time threatened
to cut from our list persons who failed
to pay up. 1t would be wrong for us
TO cut one and send to another, and
it cost us too much to continue the de-
linquint list now on our books All
those whose time has expired and have
failed to make arrangements with US,
will be dropped. When person.
time is out we will notify him and
stop his paper at once if the money
loes not come.

Going to Church Late.

Sunrise may be considered early
enough to rise on Sunday morning.
II is then not six o'clock and there is
five hours to prepare for church l.
that not time enough for people to get
to church? We have in mind a GER
tain church we have visited, and have
noticed on different occasions when
the hour of eleven arrived less than a
half dozen of the members were pre-
sent. We don't see just how a mem
bership can expect to build up or hold
at such rate. To a strange minister
we suppose it is very embarrassing to
sit in the pulpit waiting on the con-
gregation to gather after the time has
passed. Strangers visiting the church,
on finding themselves alone. are dis
couraged and prefer being alone at
home or going where they will find
better crowds. Persons attending
church ought to be in their seats at
the time for service. They are not
embarrassed and they don't disturb
the audience by coming in. 1t is nice
to be on tune at church.

Extirpatlng the Cattle. Plague

In reply TO q resoIltiOn Of the House of
Representatives, Commissioner Colman of
the department Of agriculture sets forth
that the difficulties that have been en-
countered in forts to eXtirpate pleuro-
pneumonia in the west. In the present
state of the law the national authorities
can 60 scarcely anything in dealing with
this matter within state except to CO.
operate with state authorities under state
laws. If local regulations and methods
are inadequte nothing can be done to
make them mere efficient. Mr.. COlman
urges the necessity of granting to
his department "power to carry out
the measures required for eytirpating
peuro-pneumOuia uutrammeled by state
laws or state authorities, If it is expected
TO promptly suppress this disease" 1t is
greatly to be feared that congress will
find constitutional limitations to its
authority in the wsy of granting any such
power to deal summarilY with u local
cattle disease, however serious, but it is
quite time that state authorities realized
the necessity of prompt and vigorous &C
ton on their own part for suppressing
such contagion. The effective way is
the only economical way, and thst means
that all infected cattle and all cattle that
have been exposed to infection should be
speedily slaughtered. -

Confederate Ink That Fades.
Baltimore American.

Attention of the legal authorities Of
Virginia has just been directed to sing
ular state of affairs. During the last
three years of the war, when commuuica-
ton with Northern manufacturing CEN
tiers was cut off, the supply OF ink in the
South gave out, and 1t was manufactured
in hurry, and of course, not according
to the most approved methods. The
county court records were kept in this
ink, and now investigation of the court
house hooks, in which deeds and such
things are recorded, reveals the fact that
many of these are so iDdistlnct as to be
barely descipherable. From this cause it
is feared that unless steps are promptly
taken serious complications will arise.

CONCERT.

The concert given in the Cong
Church Wednesday evening for
the benefit Of the society by the
church choir, assisted by outsiders
was largely attended. The pro-
gram was a choice one and all the
performers acquitted themselves
with credit. Especially fine wa;
the vocal duet by Misses Laura
Reeves and Belle Mosher; vocal
solo, by Miss Lottie Lynn and the
violin solo, by Mr.. Jens Flaaten, a
new conner from Norway. A reci-
tation-King of Denmark's ride
by Miss Belle Mosher was ABLY
rendered and with good effect.
AS usual Prof Zenier presided
at the piano with that ease and
efficiency known only to those of
his ability. He appeared at ease as
master Of ceremonies and the cred
it for the success of the entertain
ment is largely due to his untiring
efforts in the preparation Of the
program.
The piano used on this occasion
was kindly loaned by Mr.. M. H.
Lynn. The society netted snug
little sum out of the proceeds.
